Another
activity, which is turning to be quite a rage, is hot-air
ballooning. Perched on a wicker basket, you can go as high
as 3000m, flying above the Kathmandu valley. As if that isn't
thrilling enough, you get a sweeping 360* view of the world
beneath. Lush-green terraced hills stretch like a carpet for
as far as the eyes can see. The eyes of Swayambhunath twinkle
gently at you, a gilded temple spire glimmers in the morning
sun, houses sit huddled together in peaceful harmony. And
as your eyes look right, you see right before you the Majestic
splendor of the Himalayan peaks. All of them stand up in the
brilliance of the morning sun, as if to greet you. Suddenly
time stands still. The one-hour fantasy flight gives you a
lifetime of memories.
